help car turns off!

I have an 87 trans with the 350 tpi I put the scanner and it marks code 34mass air flow sensor. My car turns off rite away when I turn it on, is it because of the mass air flow

oh and one more thing the fans turn on before i turn the car on.

Re: help car turns off!

My MAF sensor was unplugged when I bought it 4 months ago and for I dont know how long before that but my car would stay running and would never shut off the only thing that happened was a large decrease in power and the transmission would not shift into fourth. About a month ago I figured out it was unplugged and plugged it back in and every thing worked just fine after that like I gained more power and the transmission worked fine.
